[hibernate-dev] Metamodel tests

[Steve Ebersole]

My guess is that most likely nothing here really changed.  We had slews 
of test failures that tbh hid lots of problems.

Nonetheless, returning null instead of empty string is the convention we 
decided on in Austin.  It just does not make sense to keep doing that 
isEmpty() style checks higher and higher.  The point of source is to 
normalize stuff like this to a common playing field.
